“When you got the dream locked in your
sights and all you gotta do is pull the trigger,” Hardy captioned
an Instagram post in which he is wearing boxing gloves.
A former NFL Pro Bowl defensive lineman, Hardy made his way to the
UFC after a pair of victories on Dana White’s Contender Series.
“The Prince of War” trained out of American Top Team and went 4-5
with one no contest during his tenure with the Las Vegas-based
promotion. Hardy
parted ways with the UFC in March after his contract was not
renewed.
